Reply to comment by NRA-4-EVER in Close to Impossible for rise in Natural Gas prices to end by [deleted]

I actually think this post is regarded, but I do wonder where people think the electricity to power the AC to cool their homes and power their shitcoin mining operation comes from..

Well I'm not surprised that lot of regards here doesn't know most of their electricity come from natural gas....that why they're confused why there a price bump in summer.

I don't disagree, here in Minnesota our awful power company (xcel energy) has starting converting the coal plants to natural gas including the largest coal fire plant in the five state area. However, every chart I could find shows a precipitous drop off in use in March and the summer demand doesn't reach winter levels. I don't know why this guy wants everyone to jump in right when it should drop off. Heavy bags perhaps...

I’m not sure natural gas pricing is that effected by regular seasonal trends. Those are completely planned for and it’s not like the natural gas companies will produce an oversupply unless the usage is actually lower than normal.
